I get them using my old sources.list and one I built at a repo building site mentioned from other similar questions. See my current sources.list below.
###### Ubuntu Update Repos
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
When viewing the failed urls, I notice that these list main/binary-amd64 instead of binary-x64. It appears that I could fix this by putting deb=amd64 in each sources line, but I doubt that this is the root of the issue.
uname -a returns:
Linux Knights 3.13.0-24-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 2 23:30:00 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
In case it matters I did upgrade this from 13.10.
Output from dpkg --print-foreign-architectures:
i386
x64
The problem is easy to fix. Just type:
sudo dpkg --remove-architecture x64
Now, someone added that architecture there. That's not a valid architecture. The only valid architectures are:
- amd64
- armhf
- i386
- powerpc
- ppc64el
To add any of them just use:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture
Where arch is one of the above.
